Pull out your paints, pens, or computers and help DeKalb County Library design a limited edition library card. The Design-a-Library-Card art contest begins Tuesday, April 13 in three age groups – children (5-12), teens (13-17) and adults (18 and older).
Details will be available at library branches (including the Decatur Library) and at www.dekalblibrary.org after the launch of the contest on April 13. Get an early start so you will be ready to send in your winning design before the final deadline on June 1, 2010.
While you’re taking a break from designing, pull together your old/used books to donate to the Friends of the Decatur Library for their special sale during the Decatur Arts Festival in May. Donations are accepted at the Decatur Branch – just drop them off at the front desk with a note that says for the “Friends of the Decatur Library.” They use the proceeds to fund a variety of special programs including the popular music series.
And you thought the library was only for reading!
